even though they're not a team to write-off so easily but it seems Ac Milan might just have bitten off a lot more than they can chew going into the 2^nd leg of the Champs Ligue semi's next week.
granted they've got a 2-goal away goal cushion to lean on but they're gonna be doing the chasing in the San Siro & with the devastating counter-attacking potential of Utd to contend with, i don't think many-a-rossoneri faithful are relishing the thot!

Carlo Ancelloti's seeming preference for experience over youth is Milan's biggest problem; in recent games (i.e Celtic/Bayern) they seem to run outta gas in the latter stages of the 2^nd half.
they employ slow, steady approach to the game 'cos of the lack of pace in the team, which makes much easier to stifle & thus they'll always struggle against "high octane-like" teams!

Tactics/tecnique has never been an issue with Milan; they always seem to have the ideal one for every game - Xmas tree, Maginot line etc. but whatever the case, Ancelloti always plays with 2 attacking midfielders (Kaka & Seedorf) flanking their lone striker; 2 defensive midfielders (Ambrosini & Gattuso) protecting their attacking midfielders & Pirlo, deep-lying, camouflaged in front of his defense orchestrating defense-to-attack traffic ---- a trifle predictible don't you think !?

next big stress, the ideal man upfront - Sheva's departure left a gaping hole yet to be filled & Ronaldo's arrival was a touch too late!
Inzaghi, Oliviera, Gilardino hardly fit that bill  of strikers who can hold the ball & bring the midfielder into the picture ---- the one man who probably would do a good job is the young french-man Gourcoff but he hardly ever gets a look-in, a situation not helped by his being 20yrs old; will Ancelloti be bold 'nuff to look beyond his age?

Can Milan overturn the deficit against Man Utd? they definitely can; but there is a but!

Signs of a "not too good" coach

Tactics and techniques alone dont win games.Pair it up with pace,individual flair and aright attiude and u perform well

A youngster who prolly needs more time to mature!!

no team can stop chelsea,

not even Carlo Ancelloti, can can stop Mourinho
